{a/n} A hectic week of work but I strived.

ENJOY! - Amni

HARU

Haru wanted to eat curry noodles. In fact, she was craving for it. When they finished watching Nijiiro perform, they decided to go to have early dinner before getting home. They only have an hour left before the stalls close and they better hurry or Tuesday's special would be gone and Samuel would be bawling on the floor.

"Hey, look!!" Sasha pointed at the group of crowd flocking on the university's main entrance. "What's the fuss all about?" Samuel's words trailed as he walked to the crowd the smae moment Haru's phone buzzed.

A message from Hunter; I'm waiting for you in front of your school's main doors. Please come.

"Seriously!?" Haru muttered. So, the crowd...

Samuel's thumb pointed at the crowd as he jogged back to them. With a confused, yet amused expression, he said, "There's this black Range Rover parked in front and there this scary looking dude wearing a suit leaned on it. Some people are taking photos of him. He looks like a bodyguard from teen romance movies."

"Maybe he's waiting for his young master?" Haru suggested. Oh, come on...Why...

"Our school doesn't have a rich kid that rich." Sasha simply said.

"The dude looks pretty young too. But anyways, I'm hungry! I need the Tuesday's Special!" Samuel declared while patting his belly. He then hooked his arms around his girlfriend and Haru's neck and proceed to drag them to eat.

Haru's phone in her hand started buzzing again. This time it wasn't a message. It was a call from Hunter. She let herself free from Samuel's arm and tell them "My mom!! You guys go! I think I need to go home now."

"Aw, no curry noodles?" Sasha pouted. "Maybe next time." Haru said and showed her buzzing phone. "I'm gonna take the call. Bye!"

"Hello?" Haru slowly walked to the crowd.

"Are you still here? I'm waiting-"

"Yes! Yes, I'm here. Is there a crowd in front of you?"

"If I say yes?" She could picture him raising his eyebrow while saying that.

"Are you standing outside of the car?" When she was already inside of the flock of people, making her way to get more in front, she could see the neat-looking-Russian-gang lord was actually was.

"If I say yes to that too?" he sounded calm and unaware how freaked out Haru was. HUNTER WAS AT HER SCHOOL! IN FRONT OF THE MAIN DOOR! WITH PEOPLE AROUND HIM! WAITING FOR HER!

Why did he think that this is a good idea?!

Haru sighed while thinking about how to get off here with him without any suspicion. She whispered, "Can you get inside the car? Now? Please?"

Hunter was already starting to search for her around the curb. "Yeah, I can but why should I?"

She cupped her hand to her phone. "I will act calm and take my time walking to the car, quietly, without people noticing. And then we drive far away, deal?" Hunter smirked at this.

"As you wish." He said and went inside the car smoothly as plan. Haru touched the red button and breathes. Okay!

She walked quickly, and not so calm as she planned earlier. Don't notice me. Don't notice me. Don't notice me...! She chanted in her head wishing that people wouldn't see her. She walked to the fountain, acting like she was curious about the almost 20-year-old sculpture, where the other side of the car door was. When she was positive that people couldn't see her, she ducked and make her way to the car slowly. Lord and Behold, Hunter already opened the car door for her, decreasing her worries and she dashed in.
